Local And Global Spectral Visual Saliency Estimation Based On Human Visual Behavior
Journal Title: Acta Technica Napocensis- Electronica-Telecomunicatii (Electronics and Telecommunications) - Year 2013, Vol 54, Issue 3
Abstract
In this paper a saliency detection algorithm based on local and global information is proposed. The proposed method extends a previous work by calculating the pixels saliency by means of local patches and the global dissimilarities between a patch and all other patches based on color contrast differences and spatial distances. The image patch scale is fixed and in accordance with the size of the regions of interest (ROI), while the spatial difference takes into account the fact that the focus of attention can subtend a certain region from the visual angle. Resulted algorithm is tested in an image retargeting application and proves its effectiveness.

Simulation Of DWDM Communication System At 8.10 Gbit/s Using Continuum Source In The Transmitter
In this paper, the 8-channel DWDM communication system at 8.10 Gbit/s is demonstrated. Laser diodes used in conventional DWDM link have been replaced by continuum covering C-band of optical communication window. If the...
Study of the Decoding Complexity for Rateless Erasure Codes
Over the Internet, bit errors within the data packets translate into packet losses at the higher layers of the OSI model, yielding a packet erasure channel. Modern erasure correcting codes promise to offer a very simple...
Defect detection and restoration of heritage images
One of the major problems of the old artworks is their degradation due to aging. As a result, the digitized artworks images exhibit a series of defects. Whereas scientific methods were applied to the analysis and restora...
Decoupled Second-Order Volterra Filter Structure Using the NLMF Adaptive Algorithm for Nonlinear Acoustic Echo Cancellation
The paper proposes a nonlinear acoustic echo cancellation setup based on a decoupled scheme of the second-order adaptive Volterra filter. The acoustic distortions that take place in the Loudspeaker-Enclosure-Microphone s...
